Your question is not clear.
Are you trying to get views from linked model? or You want to copy views from linked model?

I usually do something like this :
Be sure to copy the section view family type first if it isn’t already present in your document.

hi alban
thank you for your response. ive tryied your graph but as you can see theres no problem with copying but it puts it in the wrong location. is there a way to fix this?
Ok.
Your curent document and your linked file do not share the same coordinate system.
There are actually quite a few topics for transforming coordinates from which you can draw inspiration. Once you have found the right vector, you can then use the Element.MoveByVector node to place the newly created sections in the right place.
If you aren’t successful, add to the topic your current document and your linked Revit file so we can help you more effectively.
Hi @Alban_de_Chasteigner , I reproduced the script to copy views from linked file. It works great to copy viewsection line, but it does not copy the views. Am I missing something or something else? could you help me to figure out?
